DNC's new blog: "Kicking Ass"
Has this been posted here yet?

It looks pretty good, I esp. liked their mocking of the Bush-Cheney campaign blog:

http://www.democrats.org/blog/

Bush's blog

The Bush/Cheney campaign has created its official blog, and we just wanted to say welcome. A few notes about the blog:

* No comments. That means there's no feedback and no community. Too bad, really. That's what makes a blog interesting.

* No names of the posters. Every post is signed "GeorgeWBush.com," so the readers get no sense of who is posting.

* Circular conservative logic. Most of the posts link to conservative publications and columnists who have their talking points fed to them by the administration. (Literally in the case of a linked Colin Powell op-ed.) There's little commentary on these links, just, "Hey, check out this story which just happens to repeat what our press releases have been saying. What a coincidence!"

* Creepy logo. Seriously, what's up with that Bush/Cheney '04 Blog logo off to the right? That's just freaky.

Well, they've got 13 months to improve it.
